Curtains

Over Christmas break I grabbed some fabric and sewed some curtains for my bedroom and for the girl's bedroom. They already had some curtains I had made from our house in Gilbert, but they weren't long enough or wide enough for their bedroom here. I ended up just sewing the new fabric right over the old because they were blackout curtains and I didn't want to waste the fabric. Small hitch, when the light shines in, which is all the time, you can see where the old curtains end. Will fix that later. On to my curtains, love the fabric! Got it at SAS in Tempe. If you haven't been you are in for a real treat. It is quite possibly the most ghetto place I have ever been to besides the ranch market and Uncle Bear's BBQ. Both the ranch market and the BBQ turned out okay, the verdict is still out on SAS. You can't argue with the prices though. My really nice, chocolate brown, gathered fabric was $3.99 a yard. The criss-crossed champagne colored fabric was $6.99 a yard. HOW CAN YOU BEAT THAT? You can't! So, I guess it was worth it, but still very ghetto. As you can probably see from the pictures, I wanted to get them up for company and didn't line them yet. Will fix that later too. So, there you have it. One more sewing project to come...when it will happen is yet to be decided. Back to school.
